Why Choose Native Plants?
Southeastern native plants are adapted to our climate and soil conditions, so they typically thrive without a lot of care when planted in the right location. They don’t require fertilizers or pesticides and need less supplemental water than many non-native plants.
Additionally, native plants don’t run the risk of becoming invasive in the landscape. They have co-evolved with native insects and animals for thousands of years providing, food, shelter, and breeding grounds.
